The balanced translocation could've come from my parents or just happened to me, an act of nature. They suggested that my parents get tested, b/c my other siblings could have this and not know it. They could then pass it on to their kids as well and my nieces/nephews could have problems...

Hey Morris, We used to work in Madison and live in Pardeeville, just north of Madison. Be sure you go to the Farmers Market on Saturday at the Capitol if you get a chance. Really nice market with a lot of goodies and fresh fruits and veggies. Anne

Jen - I'm so sorry this is happening to you. I'm sorry for your loss. I've been there, so if you need to chat, just let me know. It's not an easy thing to go through, but you'll get through it o.k. Take the time you need to heal. Please know that I'm keeping you in my prayers in this tough...

I agree with everyone as well. As long as you don't drink, smoke or drink caffeine you should be fine. M/C early on are normally from genetic problems with the baby. I'm a special case. I've had two now at about 8 weeks and am 37 years old. I had all the tests you can think of and am glad...

Congrats on your BFP Jen! Lisa - I hope Flossie is gone by the time you see this. Take care and praying it passes right over you. Not much new here. Was on vacation in WI last week, so not online too much. Was nice to see the family and friends again. Always seems so long in between...

Lisa, You're not the only one. I've been eating chocolate and goodies like they're going out of style. I was doing so well eating clean and then I just blew it. I need to get rid of the 1 cup of coffee in the morning too. I've been exercising like crazy and it does me no good if I eat like...

Hi all, Well, got back from the genetic specialist today. Looks like my #2 and #19 chromosomes are the one's causing my problems. The good (bad) news is that we have a little less than 1% chance of having a baby (carrying it to full term) with developmental or other problems due to my...

Hi all, Sorry, I've been away. Found out today that the last test that we took, the Chromosome test, didn't come back so good for me. DH has all 46 XY chromosomes and I have all 46 XX chromosomes. The problem is that 2 of my chromosomes break on the ends and then switch and reattach wrong...

Ughh...I could only wish my eggs were still only 34 years old...another 6 months and mine will be 38 and no kids yet...:( HAPPY B-DAY Melanie! Doing anything special? Anne

Hi ladies, It's late, but wanted to check in and say a big HI to everyone. Nothing much new here. Working on getting the extra bedroom ugly border down. Now, I just have to sand, patch work and then get it ready for painting! I figured it was a good time to do it while I'm not preggers...

Oh my gosh Lisa! She sounds like a real winner. I hate it when people try to be competitive in stuff like that. I'm sorry, but I don't have kids, but I know they're going to fight! Heck, she should've seen me and my siblings. We really were good kids, but you're going to have the occasional...

Yay Melanie - Never thought I'd hear someone happy to have AF arrive on a TTC board! I'm happy that things are getting back to normal for you! Well, saw the Dr. today and some of my tests came back positive for antibodies. She didn't want to interpret further, so she's sending me to a High...

Melanie - Congrats on the house, it's gorgeous. It's so open and pretty. I'd love to live there. My husband would love the extra garage too. When do you start the new job? Lisa - Sorry about AF finding coming.}( It will happen for you soon, don't get discouraged. I've been at it for...

Hi all, I'm being tested for some things now that I've had multiple m/c. She's testing for Anti Nuclear Antibody (ANA) screening. The different kinds are: anti cardio lipin antibodies anti phospho lipid antibodies If you have too many of either of those, your body will continue to...

Lost it last night ladies. It's over now. Jim was home by midnight and was tearful to have learned the news. He felt bad that I had to go through it by myself. We're taking it easy today and napping a lot. I guess since it happened this time last year, I had prepared myself on Wed when I...

Thanks Curly. Sorry you've had to go through this. No question now, I'm passing a lot of tissue, just like last year. Should be over in a few days. I'll have my HCG checked in 2 weeks to be sure it's down to zero. On to the next cycle... I think the odds have to be on my side next time...

I'm so sorry for your loss. I pray you stay strong and get through it quickly. I'm currently going through a similar situation. I'm about 7 weeks and started to spot. Went in for an u/s and found that it measured about a week behind and no heartbeat. They've said that it's possible my...

Hey ladies, Well, I think it's going to happen again. :( I started spotting on Wednesday. They got me in for an u/s on Thursday and it only measured about 6 weeks 2 days and I'm pretty sure i should be around 7week 3 days by now. They didn't see a heartbeat. Dr. said it's just too soon to...

Hi Ladies! Starting this a tad early tonight before I go to bed! DH is in Ontario, Canada fishing his little heart out. I hope he has a good time as he won't have too many more chances for trips by himself after the baby comes! I'm sure as the week comes to an end I'll be missing him like...

Lisa - I've totally been eating crappy too. x( I've had few burgers and shakes here and there and really need to stop that and stick to what's in my fridge! Melanie - Congrats! Neat that the boss begged you to stay, that's always nice. You must feel really relieved too, to be starting...
